[Infinite Stream] Destiny Rubik's Cube

Zhou Qi saw Xu Chi's pupils constricted at a close distance, like a starfish being stabbed by someone with a sharp object.

Then he clenched his collar tightly with both hands, Zhou Qi reacted quickly, afraid that there might be a vision behind him, so he hurriedly put his arms around the narrow waist, kicked his heels on the ground, turned sideways, and the two quietly Rolled down without a sound.As soon as he landed, the weight on his body suddenly disappeared, and Xu Chi was already lying prone on the ground, ready to shoot with a gun.

Zhou Qi lowered his face: "What?"

Xu Chi raised a finger and made a silent gesture, motioning him to look.

Zhou Qi turned his head, and saw that under the moonlight like water, the closed black-purple petals were trembling slightly, and transparent mucus gushed out from the mysterious crevice, and the flow became more and more, and finally condensed into a stream of water, winding to underfoot.Xu Chi and Zhou Qi retreated together and hid themselves in the low bushes to avoid getting contaminated with unknown liquid.

At this time, there was a soft click, and the first petal opened tremblingly, then the second, and the third... The smell of fishy sweetness in the air was so strong that it made people dizzy, and slowly , The mucus changed from clear transparent color to turbid dark yellow, and the rancid smell came one after another, irritating the fragile nasal mucosa.

Xu Chi's empty stomach began to seep acid water, and he had to exert some effort to restrain his index finger that was pressing on the trigger, lest it make its own way and blow up the flower that continued to launch biochemical attacks with one shot.

When the petals unfolded one by one, the gap opened up into a black hole, and something was squeezed out from it little by little.This situation is unavoidably reminiscent of human childbirth.

After the childbirth is complete, the plump flowers wither and wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a pile of black ash and merging with the land.

What it gave birth to throughout its life was wrapped in a thick layer of flesh-colored membrane, in the shape of a huge cocoon, and it was wriggling weirdly.

"Could it be..."

Zhou Qi had a bold idea, but before he could say it, "chachacha", the cocoon broke.

The long, familiar mouthparts pierced the membrane, and a furry head poked out. The round, pure black eyes looked around, and immediately locked on the two people not far away, and then the sickle-like forelimbs , Accessory limbs, squeezed out of the film one by one, and the wings wrapping the body also slowly opened.

- "Moth."

Zhou Qi picked up his unfinished words, and in a daze, he heard the icy gun beside him complete the loading action, and then clicked and pulled the bolt.

At this distance, Zhou Qi was sure that once the bullet was fired, it would hit the moth's head.

The flower was the mother flower that gave birth to the moth, prematurely born because of their abruptness—it appeared to be more than twice the size of a normal moth.

The moth tilted its head to look at them, its eyes as big as a searchlight stared at them, and suddenly "woo--" a short cry, it flapped its wings and flew towards them.

Xu Chi tensed his arm muscles and concentrated - the moth entered the shooting range, the moth slowed down, and the moth suddenly stopped for some reason, good opportunity!

Before pulling the trigger, one hand pressed on the barrel of his gun: "Wait."

Xu Chi raised his head in confusion.

Zhou Qi whispered to his ears: "Don't worry, that moth might be a fool."

Xu Chi's eyes moved up from behind the sight.I saw the immature moth stop two meters away, lowering its head to observe something carefully. On the ground in front of it, there was a small thing lying there quietly, and the smooth metal surface reflected the moonlight.

"What's that?" Xu Chi narrowed his eyes.

"Doll." Zhou Qi said, "The one I found on the kang of old Hughes's house just fell out of my butt pocket when we were laughing and playing."

The corners of Xu Chi's mouth twitched uncontrollably when he heard the words "playing and joking", and couldn't help but ask, "You call that slapstick?"

"Yes." Zhou Qi grinned his big white teeth, "As long as you don't beat me to death, it's called slapstick."

Xu Chi: "..."

"What if he was hammered to death?" Xu Chi asked curiously.

"That's a miss." Zhou Qi pulled out a smirk, "Jiaojiao's subordinates are dead, and even a ghost is a coquettish."

Xu Chi felt that there was something wrong. These words seemed to be said by his soldiers when they molested women. Is it inappropriate to use it here?He carefully examined Zhou Qi's expression, and found nothing embarrassing, but he couldn't help but suspect that young people nowadays might talk like this.

When the moth saw the little puppet, it was so excited that it couldn't move its legs. It kept trying to pick up the puppet from the ground with its forelimbs, but its forelimbs were not as flexible as a human's five fingers, and it only scratched a layer for a long time Tupi, it was so angry that it flew around the puppet in a circle, looking a little funny.

"It looks like it really wants that." Zhou Qi rested his chin and watched enough of the show, and yawned lazily.

Xu Chi looked at the restless moth, thinking: "Why is it interested in a puppet?"

Zhou Qi stomped his numb feet: "Want to know?"

Xu Chi nodded subconsciously.

By the time he realized that someone might be about to use some unexpected tricks, Zhou Qi had already jumped out loudly and walked straight towards the moth.

Xu Chi couldn't stop it.The newly born moth might be really stupid. Seeing Zhou Qi running towards it with a machete in his hand, he just stood there stupidly, not moving, and even made a grievous "cuckoo" sound, using his sharp forelimbs. Pointing to the puppet on the ground, like a child who can't get a toy complaining.

Zhou Qi stopped in front of him, bent down to pick up the doll, and shook the arm holding the doll left and right: "Want this?"

The moth seemed to understand what he said, and nodded.

Zhou Qi then took out a rag from his pocket, tied it around the doll's neck, and hooked his fingers towards the moth.

The moth lowered its head obediently.

Zhou Qi looked it up and down, and finally tied the doll to the mouthpart that could eject corrosive venom, and tied a beautiful knot.

"This is a meeting gift for you." Zhou Qi patted Moth on the head.

The moth was crazy with joy, hanging the little puppet swinging from side to side, swinging it happily, the eyes became interlocking, it played for a while, and rubbed its fluffy head against Zhou Qi desperately, as if to express its gratitude.Zhou Qi couldn't stand the coquettish behavior of such a huge monster, he was pushed on the ground with his head, and couldn't get up for a long time.

Xu Chi on the side was lost in thought.

This is so dramatic.he thinks.It's unbelievable.How did this one person and one moth quickly establish an emotional connection by turning fighting into jade?Could it be because Zhou Qi usually loves some moths?In essence, they are actually a kind of species, so they can reach a friendly consensus across physiological barriers?

5 minute later.

Zhou Qi waved at him: "Jiaojiao, let's go! The little moth said he would take us for a walk!"

Xu Chi was still in an illusory state, picked up his gun, and walked over like stepping on cotton.

I saw that moth was folding its wings and laying on the ground, arching Zhou Qi on its back with its head.

Zhou Qi thought it was enthusiastic: "Don't push, don't push, I will go by myself. Later, I will bring my Jiaojiao along."

After speaking, he turned back to urge Xu Chi: "Hurry up, what are you dawdling about? Free flight, if you take the flight, you will earn money!"

Xu Chi and the moth met each other face to face, and they were a little jealous of each other.

Xu Chi never imagined that one day, he would change from a moth-hunter to a moth-wielding plane.In view of the fact that he had slaughtered countless moth wings before, he was actually a bit reluctant to get along with them intimately. After all, peace is always short-lived. If conflicts break out and they are thrown from the sky, even a saint will have no way to recover.But that idiot Zhou Qi dragged him up by force.

There was no sign of takeoff.

As soon as I sat down firmly, the gust of wind passed by and rose from the ground.

They gradually rose up, and the mother flowers were bathed in the soft moonlight, swaying gently, and slowly narrowed in the field of vision.

After reaching a certain height, Xu Chi glanced over the edge of the flower field. Seeing something, Xu Chi suddenly turned his head and tugged Zhou Qi's arm at the same time.

Zhou Qi was looking down at the strange scenery with his upturned face, a little excited, when Xu Chi pulled him away, and the bridge of his nose almost hit Xu Chi's cheek.

"What's the matter?" He stopped in a delicate position, and his hot breath hit Xu Chi's neck.

But Xu Chi didn't notice it, and pointed to the west: "Let it fly over there."

"What's there?"

"I'm not sure. I just glanced at it."

The distance was so close, in Zhou Qi's world, suddenly there were only those two bloodless thin lips left.In mid-air, the night wind blows against the face, the side face is close at hand, the clear heartbeat is transmitted from the chest to the brain, and a ridiculous idea jumps out of the water that is no longer stable.

Xu Chi lowered his voice: "I seem to have found those 'disappeared' moths."

Zhou Qi grimaced, put away his messy thoughts, leaned over, and scratched the fluff on the top of the little moth's head.The little moth was very obedient. After understanding the command, its wings deflected an arc, turned around and flew in the opposite direction.

The female flower field stretches as far as the eye can see. Flying over the flower field, you will reach the most western part of the upturned surface, which is also the place closest to the moon.

The moths retracted their wings one by one, arranged them neatly, and stood silently at the end of the flower field like sculptures.They all faced a stone wall in unison. The stone wall towered into the sky and obscured their vision. That's why they couldn't see them at first, but they could easily detect them in the air.

The little moth stopped on the stone wall. It was still very immature. It tilted its head to look at its kind below, and there was a novel light in its bright black eyes.

"Are these moths dead?" Zhou Qi looked at the mass of moths, his scalp was numb, "Why didn't they move?"

"For some reason, they may not be able to move at night." Xu Chi speculated, "If this is the case, it can explain why they have to rush back to the upturned surface as soon as the sun goes down."

"Can't move at night?" Zhou Qi pointed at the little moth, "Then how can it?"

Xu Chi didn't know, and spread his hands: "Maybe it's a special case."

"Could it be that only adult moths have this restriction?" Zhou Qi looked down and glanced roughly, "Look, there are no juvenile moths of the size of small moths... Ah, small moths, you Is it malnutrition?"

The little moth groaned: Nonsense, I was born prematurely!

"These moths are bred by the mother flower, and the mother flower is a plant. It stands to reason that these moths should also be plants. How did they mutate into animals?" Zhou Qi rubbed the head of the little moth roughly, while The little moth seems to be very useful, and the wings folded behind the back are slightly undulating, "And if it was a plant at the beginning, don't plants have some kind of photosynthesis? It depends on this to convert sunlight into energy. Tell me, will it be a moth? Humans have never been able to get rid of this habit in the process of evolution? The human blood they suck cannot be converted into energy by itself, and energy conversion can only be carried out through photosynthesis. Therefore, when there is no sunlight at night, the energy supply is cut off, and they only Can passively fall into a deep sleep."

Zhou Qi talked eloquently, and the more he talked, the more he felt that he was telling the truth, he was a fucking genius.

"Maybe." Xu Chi's brows were gloomy, he stared at the tall and silent mysterious creatures, the faint light dancing in the depths of his eyes showed that he was also thinking at the moment.After a while, he suddenly squatted down and rubbed the rough stone wall with his palm.

"Did you find anything?" Zhou Qi sat down, stretching his legs out of the wall and swinging.

"Zhou Qi." Xu Chi called him.

"Ok?"

Xu Chi looked over, and suddenly there was some unexplained tremor in his voice: "Tell me, why are they all facing this wall?"
